I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
ooohhh.....frist?
It isn't lying when you're creating your own reality.
DAMN YOU FLORY! Or maybe just damn satellite delay.
Gotta keep hitting that F5 key faster!
I really have a strong dislike for that woman.
Funny that.
DAMN YOU FLORY! Or maybe just damn satellite delay.
NTodd
Hee heee heee.....and I got TWO extra pieces of cake last night......
Hello?
Nevermind, I see that cheater flory is back.
I bet Condi knows allll about Bolton's "rough edges".
George & Condi & John & Laura...
Jeebus.....'rough edges'
Chasing co-workers down the hall is 'rough edges'?
I bet Condi knows allll about Bolton's "rough edges".
You think she's ridden his stache?
Jeebus.....'rough edges'
Chasing co-workers down the hall is 'rough edges'?
I think she was talking about how scratchy his mustache is.
I think in newspeak,rough edges means hes detestable.
His edges are rough enough to be considered downright stabbity.
Chasing co-workers down the hall is 'rough edges'?
Only if you threaten them with a serrated blade.
Condi: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
Allowed? Sorry, Condoleeza, you have that ass-backward. We are endowed by our creator with that right.
George & Condi & John & Laura.,
The images that brings to my mind are not pleasant.
It's become obvious that "reform" is Bushspeak for "get rid of".
For example:
tax reform
Social Security reform
Medicare reform
and now
U.N. reform
Strom had some rough edges, but what does one expect with hemorrhoids the size of barnacles?
-Liddy Dole
You think she's ridden his stache?
Umm.... eww.
Saying Bolton has rough edges is like saying that the Atlantic Ocen has some water in it.
Condi: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
I think there's an error in that quotation. IIRC, it's s'posed to read: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people can watch what they say and how they say it?"
Spent the day at the house where I'll be moving. Amazing place. The twin and I want to start a large organic garden maybe sell some of it locally. I can tell it's going to take a lot of work just to keep it up.
Ocean. Dammit.
Condi: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
I think there's an error in that quotation. IIRC, it's s'posed to read: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people can watch what they say and how they say it?"
I thought it was "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where only Republicans are allowed to speak"?
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, speaking Friday to a sold-out crowd in San Francisco, urged the Senate to confirm of John Bolton as U.N. ambassador, saying though he is "a pretty tough person ... and he can have rough edges," Bolton will provide "a strong voice for reform of the United Nations."
I guess Condi wants Bolton to "reform" the U.N. much the same way Bush wants to "reform" Social Security.
Where are you mving, Incog?
Condi: "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
Said as the protesters were being removed from the room. If free speech is allowed why not just ask them to either sit down or move to the back of the room so that they do not obstruct the view of those behind them?
I guess Condi wants Bolton to "reform" the U.N. much the same way Bush wants to "reform" Social Security.
That is, in fact, what "reform" *means* for them.
THe only bright side of that infernal speech,was that the protesters were only held for an hour and written a ticket then discharged.
Ahh yes,I'm so glad we are allowed to speak.
Nevermind, I see that cheater flory is back.
NTodd
Jealousy is soooooo unattractive!
First thing I need to do is thin some of the fruit on the peach trees. They're loaded down with too many now.
Dragging this along from previous thread, hope that it does not kill this one.
Cute grey cat pics
His name is Mr President and he reminds me of Atrios' grey. Is it Whiley or Gizmo? Anyhoo, he's a pretty boy.
Bolton, rough around the edges, Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.
.
Spent the day at the house where I'll be moving. Amazing place. The twin and I want to start a large organic garden maybe sell some of it locally. I can tell it's going to take a lot of work just to keep it up.
Ooooooooh! I wanna see a plan of the garden, c'mon! How big? Sell it locally? Of course, that's a great idea - and if you can't find a store, then we'll find you a carretta and a little pony and you can sing its praises in the street? Maybe not. (That's what I'm threatening Arthur with, if these 50lb watermelons turn out....)
C'mon, tell!
Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
"Isn't it wonderful" = "Unfortunately, at the moment"
Graduation over. Not too hot. I didn't have to resort to swimwear under the medieval duds.

The new Amnesty International report sure has some people bothered...NRO...Bill O'Reilly...etc.
Could it have been the fact that they called Gitmo the Gulag of our time?
Cute kitty, kent!
I opted for inappropriately naked bankers instead of cats this week.
Peaches loading down the trees? Ooooooh, you're going to have to pick them and call somebody to take them away - is there a local gleaners to talk to? You don't want them to fall and rot, Incog, they'll ferment there and it's awfully bad for the trees. You won't want to deal with them either - try to find a church group or an auxiliary who'll take the crop.
Ooooh, I wish I could play!
I think maybe it's time to, ah, reform the First Amendment.
Nudge, nudge, wink wink.
Flory, is NTodd having one of his 'I didn't get to be first' tantrums?
We're Not Losing Anymore?
ummmmm....errrrrrr.....ahhhhhhhh, yes, well...
Bolton will be confirmed.
that corporate bint Owen has already been confirmed for LIFE.
the Jones bint will undoubtedly be confirmed,
(Lie-berman saw to that; Ed Schultz buried his nose in Jomentum'sa ass the other day so deep that Loserman was breathing for two)
as will all the rest of the Bushevik judicial appointments...
there is tons of sound and fury--and fuck-all for activity--in the Dumbocrap leadership.
every piece of regressive, pro-corporate pork that has been porposed this year has passed...
Please, somebody, show me the one little victory that somehow demonstrates we're not losing anymore???
please???
"Rough edges" - I charitably describe my alcoholic sister-in-law the very same way. Niiiice...
Ha!
I've been a drafter (was a draftsman, but you know, PC) and now mechanical designer for so long, part of it seems like in a previous life.
The point is, every drawing of a part has standard notes. One of which is like this:
2. Remove all burrs and sharp edges.
Apparently Bolton was machined improperly and QC didn't catch it!
Send him back, and the fabricator (sic) eats the cost!

I wonder if Bolton's ever had his twice yearly review ....
Who does that fucking bitch think she is anyway? "Allowed" to talk! Fuck you you skanky whore
Yaarghh!!! Tesify my sister...

or Testify.. Either one..
Please, somebody, show me the one little victory that somehow demonstrates we're not losing anymore???
I second that motion.
Like I said the other day.
Can we,on the left,not have ANY school painting stories?
Condi said "there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the U.N. needs reform". To push through reform, you need the support and cooperation of other countries. What nations are going to hitch onto the irrational rantings of this untrustworthy clown?
Jill - either will do. I just want that bitch swinging from a lamppost, along with her boss.
Damn, the F5 key!

Mena- I heard her interview (or as much as I could stomach) this morning on NPR with Juan Cole. Bleeech. I wondered what would happen when she went to Stanford today. Bush will never go anywhere but the Bible belt after he was mooned at the Yale commencement. Let's hope there is such a thing as karma - she deserves all that is coming to her.
Sallyh is in the hizzle!

Thanks Eli,
I am happy to exist in his pantheon of personage.
I was just trying to find a post I swear I made last summer about Bolton showing his ass to the North Koreans, IIRC I reffered to the guy as Batshit crazy, and quite frankly could not believe at the time (even with this administration - seriously) that this guy was working in the state department in *any* capacity.

Condi is 17 kinds of vile
"Gulag of our times." is hyperbole and doesn't help the cause - Russia interned millions and millions died

I can concur, as I look at drawings of this type daily.
Our QC people would have put the bastard in the cage that parts that do not meet spec are kept in. A vision that brings a smile to my face, see?

We may not be winning the legislative victories but the public mood is changing.
Naval Academy graduates not applauding Bush.
94% of those answering an on-line poll saying the White House is manipulating the media.
Bush and Republicans in Congress getting lower ratings.
Republican Senators going off the reservation.
It is going to take quite a while but I don't think anyone who realizes what Bush really and what he is doing to Americans, people in the rest of the world and indeed the planet itself goes back to believing in him.
'Rough edges' are when you have to take the guy shopping for a job interview, not when he needs extreme psychotherapy for anger management.

Incognito Farms™ - for the finest in orchard-fresh peaches!
Son of state Sen. Becky Lourey (Minnesota-DFL) killed in Iraq
There's about 20 huge peach trees, 10 or so different plum trees, pear trees and huge fig trees. I'm going to can those, too, what the mocking birds don't eat. Figs are loaded with minerals.
"Jill - either will do. I just want that bitch swinging from a lamppost, along with her boss."
How about hanging from meathooks, like Mussolini and his mistress?
Rough edges. Bolton is not about to be made assistant night manager of Burger King. This is ambassador to the U.N. It's a rarified position. Someone with "rough edges" is the most qualified, the best that Bush can find for the job? Who do they think they're kidding.
Bolton is Cheney's minion. I'm pretty well convinced Bolton is responsible for forging the Niger yellowcake uranium documents, at Cheney's behest. It wouldn't surprise me if Bolton is responsible for outing Plame. And Cheney wants Bolton in the U.N. so they can start another war.
"Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"

The very back of the property is where we're going to put in the large garden for corn and okra and potatoes and the like. It's going to take a lot of work, hard work. I've got to build up the soil. Might get a couple of truck loads of good river soil for it. There's a place closer up to the house for our specialty garden for tomatoes, egg plant etc.

From the catblogging thread. The first part was my post followed by the response from stranger.
Fox did a long segment on the speech. Absolutely no applause in the parts they showed. Several times Bush stopped talking for a long enough time that I thought he expected a response. Did'nt get one.

The only applause he got was when he mentioned the Navy football team.
Besides that, nada.

I'd also like to get some bags of crushed rock to replace the minerals and give it a mineral boost for the produce. It will all be irrigated so wont have to worry about it drying out. Oh, and through the woods, down a hill and 12-Mile Bayou which empties off the main water source for the city, Cross Lake, so the fish in it wont be poluted. Plenty of fresh fish all year long. Beside this house is a huge nature preserve that also stretches behind it to bayou so we'll never have to worry about development in the future.
Baby, you bring in good river bottom soil it won't be so much hard work as standing and throwing seed into the ground. Your big problem will be making sure that your customers know about what you've got.
You're sure about the okra? Really? O-kay.... Listen, tho, if you're using good dirt, make sure to put in onions too - get Vidalia seed. Your soil won't have any sulphur in it, and that'll guarantee the onions will be sweet as sugar.
Incog, sounds like you have found the ideal place.
I know you are ging to enjoy staying there.

Yeah, but only because they're so hard to throw accurately...
GWPDA, you forget where Incog is. You have to have okra. Yes, I do love it myself.
Dunno about the minerals, but sounds to me like chickens might be in order. No, not feral burros, but chickens, like beans, are great for fixing nitrogen and better, at picking bugs. Keep some good, sensible chickens and you're in business.

A picture of the Pope with swastikas in the background = good.
A picture of Bush being sodomized by an Arab = bad.
Only in Florida.

And recent attendance at the Grand Canyon Sweet Onion Festival, where I snagged 36lbs of sweet onions for the price of 18!

Fair enough. It's been used a lot - that's right, you said the old owner had kept a big garden there. Yes, sweeten it with new dirt and any additions you need. I'd just really try to stay away from stuff that isn't authentic.
Does it ever bother Condi? Late at night, alone, in her apartment? The sight of a man, hooded, standing on a crate, wired? Do you think it ever bothers her? Worries her? Makes her so ashamed she wants to cry? Did it bother her today?

but I am counting on some warm weather to do the work for me.
Like many others who came of age politically in the 1960s, I became adept at not taking the measure of the left's mounting incoherence. To face it directly posed the danger that I would have to describe it accurately, first to myself and then to others. That could only give aid and comfort to Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and all the other Usual Suspects the left so regularly employs to keep from seeing its own reflection in the mirror.

Hecate - I wish they all live long, long lives. To 115 or so. That way they can see their lies and murderous agendas laid bare for the world to see and study and for their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, etc. to try to defend in their prep schools for years and years to come.
The tree limbs are going to start breaking if I don't get them off.

The troll steals pie's name because it is short and easy to spell. Even a namestealing troll can manage cut and paste followed by typing three letters.
I'm not sure that's *all* there is to it...
Incog,
I've got two fig trees! The birds usually eat the figs before they're ripe enought for me, though. But I think you can get netting to go over the trees to keep the birds from doing that. Your new place sounds amazing.
Hecate: there's a lot of self-delusion going on in this administation (yeh, the whole world too) & the biggest one she & the rest have is that "IX/XI changed everything"
Are we parodying, ridiculing, or ignoring the namestealers tonight?
Whatever seems appropriate at the moment.
Are we parodying, ridiculing, or ignoring the namestealers tonight?
All three, most likely. I'll be in the Ignore contingent.
And Alien Lockdown looks more like Quake II than DOom III, IMO.
kent - I take it you're in the market for the peach/onion stuff? Honestly, I stole it from the onion festival, and dunno how it'll turn out, but figured since the unfinished dills were fermenting so nicely I might as well go ahead....
To paraphrase the former Stanford provost, isn't it wonderful that you live in a country where you can worship Ba'al?
Still, it would be better if we didn't have to put up with wingnut bullshit.
There's way more figs on these trees than we'll ever use. The birds can have the rest.
I got your back Eli. There's no gettin around my ignorin
The old man even had a place outside to clean the fish. I'm going to be freezing tons of fish in the future for outdoor fish fries and plenty of cold beer.
Damn, yer killing me now.
Mayhaps we should descend into the Bayou for Next Year's Eschacon.
.
Hiya Ba'al! Long time no see!
NYMary, can I let you know here thatI think I can make it to eschacon?
Never mind Alien Lockdown, I'm watching McCallum on BBCA. Gripping stuff.
Ignore the Useblah blah blahblah.
See, they're so lame I can't even waste the energy blahblahblah.
It is said that first rate people hire other first rate people but second rate people hire only third rate people. If you are fifth rate what are you going to hire?
____league
Jesu, that's depressing.
And, yeah, even a "Peter Principle" President would be a VAST improvement over this shithead. At least in theory he'd be "Vice Presidential" material...
-
Mayhaps we should descend into the Bayou for Next Year's Eschacon.
Come on down. I really can't wait to explore that bayou. Need to get me an aluminium boat.
Kent,
Really, why do you ask about avionics, and such?
.
A turning point came at a dinner party on the day Ronald Reagan famously described the Soviet Union as the pre-eminent source of evil in the modern world. The general tenor of the evening was that Reagan's use of the word "evil" had moved the world closer to annihilation. There was a palpable sense that we might not make it to dessert.
When I casually offered that the surviving relatives of the more than 20 million people murdered on orders of Joseph Stalin might not find "evil'" too strong a word, the room took on a collective bemused smile of the sort you might expect if someone had casually mentioned taking up child molestation for sport.
My progressive companions had a point. It was rude to bring a word like "gulag" to the dinner table.
Incog, how's Stringey with all this excitement?
mena,
But of course! We'll be glad to see you! Can you drop me an email with your real name, and telling me whether you'll be coming alone or with a guest?
Mockingbirds are sorta hateful birds. They'll go along and bite out one little plug from a ripe fig and then hop to the next.
Rice proceeded with her address, but received applause when she acknowledged the disruption, saying, "Isn't it wonderful that we live in a country where people are allowed to speak?"
I'm really sick of this response. If they were free to speak none of these people would be halled away by the police as soon as they open their mouth...or jacket and have an anti-bush t-shirt on.
Freedom my ass.
They can't be free-range chickens because they have a couple of retriever type dogs and also, there's all sorts of wildlife around there like hawks that would love to make a meal of them.
Incog,
You might look into chicken tractors.
Be sure to plant some catnip to help keep the skeeters from biting you.
GWPDA,
Yes, sweeten it with new dirt...
Shame on you! Dirt is what you wash off your hands or out of your clothes. Didn't you mean "soil"?
Oo yes, some String pictures to add to the general fluffiness would be nice.
Agave,
I work in a shop that produces clamps, cases and other bits securing avionics and other intrumentation to the cockpit.
It occured to me that I may have had studied some of yer work. A longshot I know, but..........
I wouldn't want to get anymore detailed here though.
.
Hello Mary!
Incog,
Mockingbirds are better than bluejays, who are just bullies.
Incog, how's Stringey with all this excitement?
GWPDA, Irate Scholar
She'll adjust, ya know, with time. Don't know about their two big dogs but they keep them inside at night so she can go out at night until they all adjust to each other. There's a terrible mole problem there and they're hoping she'll catch them.
Hiya, Kid C!
Once again, Igblah the blah bla blahblablah.

I was thinking about it this morning: What's more uncivil? Pointing out that someone is a criminal, or being a criminal?
Civil society is too liberal for these Bad Faith assholes. Can we please load them on the B Ark?
In spite of my status as a Canaanite fertility, it may surprise you to learn that I am not particularly religious -- I just love the pleasing aromas of your burnt offerings.
Howevere, I have been doing some reading lately about Gnostic religions of the second century C.E. They were into this whole good and evil thing in a big way, and people like Bush, Rice, Bolton, DeLay, Rumsfeld and all the other Jeebofascists make one suspect that the gnostics were on to something.
There were lots of different gnostic groups. One of my favorites are the ones who actually felt that John the Baptist was the most important prophet, and that Jesus was a false prophet sent by Satan to completely distorted the Bpatist's truths. (Actually, some 20,000 of these folks still persist, in Iraq of all places). I like them because the irony is nice (it says something profound about organized religion) and because I like to imagine a conversation between one of them, and, say, James Dobson.
I meant to seay fertility deity. Even gods are fallible, unlike the Pope.
the unfinished dills were fermenting so nicely
GWPDA,
I was reading about dill in a herbal today: "The culinary connection with cucumbers goes back a long way. Charles I's cook, Joseph Cooper, records a recipe for pickling cucumbers in dill in his book of 1640."
Shame on you! Dirt is what you wash off your hands or out of your clothes. Didn't you mean "soil"?
Oh pooh, dirt's dirt. Soil is for hobby farmers. Want me to put up the pictures I took of Alberta black dirt, just outside Vulcan? We're talking dirt so rich, so glacial that I truly believed they'd just put down fertiliser - and they hadn't....
But I want a chicken tractor really, really, really bad. Unlike Incog, I'm not worried a bit about hawks and such, but Arthur - well, I'm afraid Arthur would just run a chicken ragged....
...and because I like to imagine a conversation between one of them, and, say, James Dobson.
Ba'al
HA! There'd be fisticuffs at the 30 second mark!
-
"To paraphrase the former Stanford provost, isn't it wonderful that you live in a country where you can worship Ba'al?"
Could I skip the worship part and just make a burnt offering?
NYMary,
NIH frant proposal due July 1.
Need to come up once in awhile for air, though.
Nice to "see" all of you guys.
Mary,
If you are interested, there are lots of groovey Records live MP3s from 1979 at John Wicks' website. Go to:

I seriously want the stem cell bill to succeed. Obviously for humanitarian reasons, but also, I think it will be a major slap to McLeader.
I'm just trying to imagine the defeat speech.
NYMary - let me know if that email comes through, would you? It's been acting a little hinky lately.
There's way more figs on these trees than we'll ever use. The birds can have the rest.
Incog
When I lived in Ohio, we had Black Walnut trees and an apple tree.
It was so cool the first year, then WTF! People would drive up the back road and ask if they could take the stuff. Damn it was like, thank you, Please!
I think black walnuts would make good munitions, they're so damn hard.
.
Hecate, the thing that surprised me was that unfinished dills don't require vinaigre, not a bit, no cooking. They ferment, and the dill's a part of that. But, no vinaigre means that people with delicate tums shouldn't be hurt.... Meanwhile the scent of the dill and the fermentation is permeating - and this just from four quarts!
"NIH frant proposal due July 1."
Planning your nervous breakdown for July 2? Or at least a decent vacation?
Sallyh
The whole point of Ba'al worship is playing with matches and Bar-b-q. Maybe herb burning.
So the crops come up.
I take it you're in the market for the peach/onion stuff?
Well, the initial reaction is to believe that the combination would not be so compatable, but I do like salsa, and figgering that you might have had a mastery of this particular dish, that it had to be good.
I will await a report on the success of your attempt.
I might have been in reflexive drool mode as well.
BTW, you said that there might be some pictures.......?
OK,
I am gonna stop posting and catch the fuck up.
.
Will take Mrs. Ba'al to Paris in mid July. After my hands stop trembling.
Ba'al--in that case, you'll possibly be delighted with a marinated pork loin and fresh white corn on the BBQ.
Kid C,
I know! Wicks is so talented!And I love that they're offering so much at the site--that's smart.
Sallyh
Just don't overcook the pork loin! Delicate stuff.
Overcook winguts instead.
GWPDA,
I love dill and grow lots of it. I put it in yougurt w/ cucumbers, put it in eggs, put it on salmon, put it in salad. It's a great herb.
GWPDA,
It's just that the word "dirt" has such a negative connotation... "soil" just seems more appropriate, but maybe that's just me.
Incog,
Major congrats on your situation, I'm incredibly jealous! Best wishes to you.
I look back on that experience as the beginning of my departure from a left already well on its way to losing its bearings. Two decades later, I watched with astonishment as leading left intellectuals launched a telethon- like body count of civilian deaths caused by American soldiers in Afghanistan. Their premise was straightforward, almost giddily so: When the number of civilian Afghani deaths surpassed the carnage of Sept. 11, the war would be unjust, irrespective of other considerations.
Stated simply: The force wielded by democracies in self-defense was declared morally equivalent to the nihilistic aggression perpetuated by Muslim fanatics.
Hecate, you want this receipt? It's awfully easy and looks fair to produce very nice stuff?
When I lived in Ohio, we had Black Walnut trees and an apple tree.
This place also has huge, at 200 year old pecan trees. Plantations used to plant them and you still see them here and there. I don't know what to use them for.
His new disc sounds good- I preordered, but he re-did a bunch of stuff from an earlier Spanish reissue that I have..no matter..Ill buy him reading the phone book
fair greetings, moonbats! i'm in detriot for the DEMF...anyone who wants to hook up on one of the days drop me an email. a few of my friends had to bow out at the last minute, poor suckers. the lineup looks fabulous.
rough edges...what would condi know about those, do you suppose?
jeffraham--actually, I watched it soon as I got it, but forgot to mention it. I'm amazed at how alike they are. But Mikey's fuzzier and sheds more.

I be back!
Again with the FVC™

mena,
Nothing yet, baby.
It's just that the word "dirt" has such a negative connotation... "soil" just seems more appropriate, but maybe that's just me.
Hmmmmmmmmm.... To me, soil is a verb, dirt is a noun and I like very much to dig in the dirt. Nice, black humus, rich peat, refined loam, even a touch of caliche.... Dirt's clean and fresh and alive. Now, mud, mud's not my friend.
It's a good situation all around for the 5 of us.
Incog,
Pecan pie, pecan pralines, pecans in cinnamon rolls....
Hey CD
Nice to see your words!
I can't bring up Jeffraham's page. Anyone know the news?
oh. and for you white folks out there: i was talking about her sad, nappy hair.
I seriously want the stem cell bill to succeed. Obviously for humanitarian reasons, but also, I think it will be a major slap to McLeader.
Sallyh, normally, I would say "From your lips to Ba'al's ears," but he's here and probably already heard it.
I would only add a third reason: to keep my niece and nephews from the ravages of Alzheimer's.
I don't know what to use them for.
Oh hell, you win. I give.
Jeffraham--I saw today's video, but have I missed some news? Sorry, been prepping dinner.
Now, mud, mud's not my friend.
Ahh...... but it feels sooooo good when it squishes between your toes....
Again, maybe that's just me.
You could always send a bunch to pie or Watertiger.

kent
Yeah, I guess I could. Can't wait to start canning tomatoes. I love fresh canned tomato juice with no preservatives. I'll be glad to get away from all that and grow everything I eat myself.
Sallyh: jeffraham--actually, I watched it soon as I got it, but forgot to mention it. I'm amazed at how alike they are. But Mikey's fuzzier and sheds more.
I figured you'd seen enough to get the general drift of my hillbillyese... but wasn't sure you'd seen "Billiard Room" yet. As for fuzzy shedding... did you not get my recipe for "Curly Bread" on yer bloggie?
.
oh. and for you white folks out there: i was talking about her sad, nappy hair.
You know Condi's been trying to have "good" hair her whole damn life. She just looks riduculous.
cd,
But, but, but... Condi works so hard to keep her hair in its preformed helmet shape!
What are the dates for EschaCon?
right back atcha, Lord Ba'al! good luck w/t grant. i'm sure you're more than worthy.
so incog's got a farm/plantation eh? walnut wood is worth it's weight in gold, not that you should chop down a 200yr/old tree or anything. i don't know about pecan.
are you inviting workers, or do you already have your harem of boys?
Agave,
If yer still around, please send me an email.
.
Jeffraham--I've gotten it all, dear!
Look, after the first 10 pecan pies it starts getting old. Oh hell, I'll just collect them and sell them. Don't know what I was thinking.
Sallyh: I can't bring up Jeffraham's page. Anyone know the news?
It's there... it's square (at the right screen resolution).
I'm here, I have beer!

TKK,
Sept 2-4, 2005.
Are you around this weekend?
In my homepage is an excellent article by William Rivers Pitt about the utter mess we are in both in Iraq and here.
It's a great read...
Incog,
I like to take pecans, chop them fine, and then take lamb loins and cover them with the pecans.
Very gently saute in butter and herbs for a few minutes and then finish them in the oven.
Splash some white wine on the drippings in the pan, reduce, add just a dab of creme freche to make a sauce.
Or pecan crusted roasted fish.
Ahh...... but it feels sooooo good when it squishes between your toes....
Again, maybe that's just me.
Central Scrutinizer
nope. luv it. used to do it all the time when i was little, we had a pond and a river, and a lake up the road. the sand at the pond beach was good, but the river mud, when early enough to be free of leeches, was the most fun.
I will be around most of this weekend. Did you know there is a Lower East Side art festival thingie? Are you in town?
cd, the twin and me can handle it all. We grew up on a farm doing that.
NYMary - I can't get it to send. How about you email me and I'll try to reply?
But, but, but... Condi works so hard to keep her hair in its preformed helmet shape!
Isn't that one of the two approved hairstyles?
pecans are also great in spinach salad, chocolate chip cookies, cakes, apple crisp...
Pecan ice cream....
Sallyh
Just don't overcook the pork loin! Delicate stuff.
Overcook winguts instead.
Ba'al
At the risk of entoning and not reading.
Pork lion.
That long wonderfull looking piece of meat (I'm NOT gay).
Spit it open most of the way, spread it out (I swear I'm not getting hot) and fill it with cheese, shrooms, spices, onions, peppers, what the fuck ever!
and fold it over and sew it up with string or just some of those little bamboo sticks.
Roast!
Anybody know were I can get Wingnut seed?
.
.
What are the dates for EschaCon?
Well, I'm pretty sure Mary & Thers are an item...
mena,
Look out, sistah! It's on its way!
Liars, one and all.
And, unless we can fix the election system in this country, none of them will ever pay for their crimes.
Pecans are also good in tuna salad with grapes.
But, but, but... Condi works so hard to keep her hair in its preformed helmet shape!
Does anyone else remember the urban legend about the woman that kept dousing her hair with hairspray for months on end in order to keep her doo in shape? She started having headaches and dizzy spells, finally ending up in the hospital where they had to saw the hair off her head and dig out the insects that had made a home there and had burrowed into her brain?
That's what I think of when I see pictures of Condi.
ELI MUST BE STOPPED
Bye for now.
Need to get away from the computer before eyes and hands start to complain.
Mary - (fingers crossed)?
Well, I'm pretty sure Mary & Thers are an item...

I think of us more as a thing.
CS, that wasn't an urban legend. It was real.
here's a link to this weekend in detroit:

It's too late. We must learn to accept him now.
Got it, mena! Thanks!
Got it, mena! Thanks!
NYMary
Whew!
Yeah, I guess I could. Can't wait to start canning tomatoes. I love fresh canned tomato juice with no preservatives. I'll be glad to get away from all that and grow everything I eat myself.
Incog
You are gonna be surrounded by good eats.
WRT Tomatoes, when I was a kid we had a nice garden in the back yard, and I would routinely march out with a salt shaker and pick ripe ones off the plant and bite into ripe, succulent, almost perfect peach-like tomatoes, after wiping whatever dirt, any rainshower splashback had deposited, on my shirt.
mmmmmmmmmmmmdroolingemories

The Kenosha Kid
Damn I just reloaded, an I'm ready!
Fuck the bastard!

Hecate - you've got a recipe waiting for you....
My Great Aunt Dotty used to send us a sack of papershell pecans every year at Christmas.... About fifty bucks a bag as I recall. Mijo, you're going to end up making money, all five of youse. Best thing to do probably will be just to set up a stand at the kerb and let it be known you're in business.
Night all.
I decided that, just as some people have their 'that aroma is pleasing to me' or 'you christians hate all us gays' catchphrases, I needed a catchphrase too. Hence, ELI MUST BE STOPPED.
"ELI MUST BE STOPPED"
I fear he hasn't even started.
CS, that wasn't an urban legend. It was real.
Yeah, that would explain a lot about Condi, eh?
Frist/Rice '08
Kent, that's the best way to eat a tomato. Except, if you have to be inside, it must be over the sink.
"ELI MUST BE STOPPED"
I fear he hasn't even started.
I have not yet begun to be an annoying pain in the ass!
I needed a catchphrase too.
==
Then why choose one that's doomed to never work?
also, it's "skrockin' you betow" on whfr, detroit's coolest radio station. even you folk lovers and rock people will appreciate the range, they do great world pop and jazz as well.
it's detroit after all. say what you will, people here are born with music in their blood.
Central - that's funny, because, you know, what I always think of when I see Condi's hairhelmet is the alien in Mars Attacks! who dresses up in drag to get into the White House.
Same 'do, man, same 'do.
kent,
That's the ONLY way to eat fresh cantaloupe too.... warm from the sun and juicy sweet.
OK, now I'm drooling.
Night, Moonbats
Oh my god, jennifer, that's dead on. She probably dreams of looking exactly like that mannikin.
did eli sting someone with his mansquito part? he doesn't seem anymore problematic than usual. let's not "stop him," so much as use him to stop up something. perhaps we could get Gigi to instruct him on certain entrances to the WH.
/runs away naughtily/
Kent, that's the best way to eat a tomato. Except, if you have to be inside, it must be over the sink.
A lesson learned well. Which is why I could often be found in the tomatoe patch. I always looked at the escaping juices as noureshment (now that just doesn't look right but I am running with it) for the garden.
Liars, one and all.
And, unless we can fix the election system in this country, none of them will ever pay for their crimes.
Seraphiel
Amen, sistah. I see the gardeners, grove managers are out in force. And Eli must be stopped? WTFark has he done now?
...what I always think of when I see Condi's hairhelmet is the alien in Mars Attacks! who dresses up in drag to get into the White House.
I guess Jimmyjeff took an alternative route.
Or maybe someone could try to... contain me.
Wingnutese?
.
Wingnutese?
Winglish.
Or maybe someone could try to... contain me.
Uhhh, well....
*Looking around nervously*
Eli: Winglish.
*Perfectementos*.
.
That's the ONLY way to eat fresh cantaloupe too.... warm from the sun and juicy sweet.
My favorite melon, though we did not have the success with melons that we did with maters.
You have me searching the room for an appropriate drool cup as well.
Was it Theodoric of York that had one?
Eli,
Like trying to rope the wind, Eh? Oh, and Condi is a lying hack. Totally imcompetent and a major embarrassment. How she keeps from choking on her lying words is a mystery to me.
Uhhh, well....
*Looking around nervously*
No, not you. *waves away impatiently*
I always looked at the escaping juices as noureshment (now that just doesn't look right but I am running with it) for the garden.

I bet you leave your socks all over the place, too.
Eli
I know what you look like. I have seen your pic!
I will track you down, even if I have to look at every damn person in this counrty. (you do live in this country, right?)
.
kent - no, it was "Lord P" from Miles Cuperthwaite.
Like trying to rope the wind, Eh?
Well, it was supposed to be sly double-entendre...
Oh my.
.
I dunno 'bout pain in the ass, but you're sure a pun in the Eschaton.
Pun my word, you are...
I'm sorry to get here late and miss all the gardening talk.
The tree limbs are going to start breaking if I don't get them off.
You need to prop up those lower branches before they break-cut some Y-shaped tree branches and stick one end in the ground, and use the Y to support them.
Also, Incog, if you are still there, the best books on the intensive method of gardening, using raised beds, are written by John Jeavons.
Thanks Jennifer,
Now I think instead of Martin, that was one of Murray's characters. Funny shit.
Like trying to rope the wind, Eh?
==
He's thinking along sort of..vessel-shaped lines.
Central,
Someone gave a link earlier that says our man Gannon is going to be on a TV show and take a lie detector test. Doesn't say for what, but that machine will be smoking, for real.
Eli will appreciate this arcane quote:
"But Lord P! I've come to love my job of carrying great, sloshing pails of your viscous, vile-smelling drool!"
TKK,
I don't think you can stop Eli until you're out of the sling.
I know what you look like. I have seen your pic!
I will track you down, even if I have to look at every damn person in this counrty. (you do live in this country, right?)
Or you could just come to EschaCon. I'm sure to be at the softball game, *if* there is one.
*glower meaningfully at everyone to RSVP*
kent - it was one of the Pythons - Eric Idle, I think, or if not, Michael Palin.
How do you know when Condi's lying?
When you see her lips moving...
Was it Theodoric of York that had one?
God, you got me there. I don't think so, but I've had too much alchohol tonight to get enough neurons firing to recall....
"But Lord P! I've come to love my job of carrying great, sloshing pails of your viscous, vile-smelling drool!"
Sounds vaguely familiar, but then, I hear stuff like that all the time...
My bad - the Python played Miles...Belushi was the gay ship captain...don't remember who played the drooling Lord P, it may have been Ackroyd.
and mena, I'm so sorry to hear about what happened, saw it on the earlier thread.
I bet you leave your socks all over the place, too.
mena,
I am gonna find that camera you planted.
(searching furiously for wideband reciever).
Actually it is the dryers fault. Thats my story and I am sticking with it.
Oh, right. The answer was already revealed, & is definitely something I've not seen.
Who's looking for one lil' victory?
1. Social Security is safe for this year thanks to the Democratic leaders, they saved it from the evil rethugnicans.
2. Bolton will likely NOT be approved, especially in light of the fact that the nuclear arms talks have totally collapsed because Bolton -- whose job it is to deal with this shit, didn't freakin' bother as he thought he was going to slide into the ambassador position no problem.
3. Have y'all SEEN pictures yet of Condi's FACE when the protesters did the re-enactment of the abuse at AbuGhraib during her little speech?!? OMG, priceless, I tell you!
So, celebrate, damnit.
That's all I've got to say about that.

No, but can you direct us to the horror, or was it on TV? Man, the pictures they put in the paper on a *good* day scare the hell out of me. I swear, this winter there was a pic of witchy womman in the NYT Magazine that showed beard stubble. Aaaaiiiieee!
Thanks Karin.
Kent, it's no use man. I know you inside out.
Someone gave a link earlier that says our man Gannon is going to be on a TV show and take a lie detector test.
Yeah well, I'm fairly certain he could figure out how to get around that. Remember when Reagan's barber took one to dispel the rumors that his hair was dyed?
I want to see Jimjeff pass one of them new-fangled mri scans.
Like that will ever happen.
des reminds me... have y'all heard that TN has four lawmakers under federaql indictment, with at least one still cooling his heels in jail?

I think it's on watertiger's blog..
Jemmifer,
I believe that you are correct, I'll try to google the sitch.
Did anyone notice, at the link to Condi's speech, the bottom left hand picture sure looks like that woman from Code Pink and Global Exchange, Medea Benjamin.
des, i gave people tunes already but no one wants to prove they'r real liberals and click on a detroit station.

Jeffraham--sorry, had to eat after preparing the feast. And we did not overcook the pork loin--it was done but tender and juicy.
BTW, Jeffraham, is pork barbecue considered essential in TN/KY?
bigvic, ain't that the truth. It's like they live for it. Sham policies for sham people.
Someone gave a link earlier that says our man Gannon is going to be on a TV show and take a lie detector test.
Considering he probably wrote the questions himself, it sounds like a waste of time.
So TV is the perfect place for it. Lemme guess; Fox?
Sallyh -- No apology due. I know you're usually the only one who wants to talk to me, but...

Well, fuck haloscan...
Anyways,
Liars lie, as my grandmother used to say.
cd,
a detroit station?? Bwaaahahahahahaha!! I remember hearing you moved, you're here now?
Sallyh: BTW, Jeffraham, is pork barbecue considered essential in TN/KY?
Oh, hell yeah. The Texans here find it unacceptable, accepting only beef brisket, but we hillbillys like us some PIG. I still can't get over the fact that Fate's Pig & Pie closed down... even though the Broadway Brewhouse opened in the same location (close to Casa de la Curly!).

Fresh linen on the beds upstairs.
mena,
seriously? Damn. And I thought i was inscrutible. Oh well, another dream shattered.
Jennifer,
I ain't havin any luck on google WRT the SNL drool bucket guy. I keep seeing both murray and palin in the fog of memory.
bigvic -- Yessssss...?
.
JP, please tell me they're rethugs?
Jeffraham--I've developed a late life appreciation for pig. I hated it growing up, but then I figured out that you could serve pig other than boiled.

Like the perfect cantelope, peach or tomatoe, I presume?
OK, but I can't help meself:
Homer: Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute. Lisa honey, are you saying you're "never" going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Ham?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Pork chops?
Lisa: Dad! Those all come from the same animal!
Homer: Yeah, right Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.
des: JP, please tell me they're rethugs?
Ha! The *FBI* conducted the sting. What do you think?
.
Do I hear rain? Got to put up the ragtop, toot suite!

JP,
Hell, what the fark did helloscan just eat? I posted that Harold Ford's uncle was indited for threatening to kill FBI agents, embezzeling TN tax funds and being an all around scum. The eaten post was quite beautifully written, naturally. I swear, I even edited my spelling errors.
Sallyh: Jeffraham--I've developed a late life appreciation for pig. I hated it growing up, but then I figured out that you could serve pig other than boiled.
BOILED?!? Where did you grow up -- Scotland?
.
des,
3 Dems and one repuke. The dems suck as bad as Harold Ford in TN, apparently.
bigvic: I posted that Harold Ford's uncle was indited for threatening to kill FBI agents, embezzeling TN tax funds and being an all around scum.
That's the general gist, yes. The one Beelzebublican that got snared seems to have been tipped off, as he withdrew his porkbarrel legislation yesterday or the day before, that would have given some pork to the fake company the FBI set up to entrap the Dems.

Wasn't that an Ackroyd character in a movie? I kind of crappy movie.
Do you think it ever bothers her? Worries her? Makes her so ashamed she wants to cry? Did it bother her today?
No. Not for a second.
Evening moonbats, what's happening?
Sallyh,
Remember the group of statistitions that concluded that there was something like a 3.9 mil to the third power chance that bush won the election fair and square?.
I'm pulling my hair out trying to find a link here.
did anyone else hear condi's thinly veiled threat to juan williams this morning on npr? something to the effect that there was a lot of GOOD going on in iraq and the admin. was talking about it and OTHERS SHOULD TALK ABOUT IT TOO. creepy!
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the U.N. needs reform"
as in:
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that Saddam had WMDs"
and
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that Iraq was behind 9/11"
and
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind the U.S. will default on it's bonds"
and
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that Niger had aluminum tubes"
and
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that Iraq would greet the American invasion with open arms and flower-throwing"
and
"there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the war would be a cakewalk"
"Yeah well, I'm fairly certain he could figure out how to get around that. Remember when Reagan's barber took one to dispel the rumors that his hair was dyed?
Good lord, I forgot all about St. Raygun's phoney "natural" hair color. The GOP is so farking good at telling ridiculous whoppers over the most mundane shit.

Saint Ronald of the Monster Deficit was prematurely orange.
